The microstructure and phase transformation behavior of Ni-Mn-Fe high-temperature shape memory alloys including Ni40+xFe10Mn50-x (x = 0, 10) were investigated. The results show that both two alloys exhibit single fcc γ phase annealed at 900°C for 1 day. When these quenched alloys are again annealed at 500°C for 20 days, they almost exhibit main tetragonal θ martensite. The microstructural evolutions are consistent with the results of phase transformation measurements. It is clearly found that there is an irreversible phase transformation around 480°C ~ 570°C, which is associated with the formation of tetragonal θ martensite from γ phase. Afterwards, the reversible martensitic transformation occurs during heating and cooling with very high transformation temperature.

ABSTRACTSeveral ternary Fe-Pt-Pd alloys with the compositions of Fe-(25-x) at% Pt-x at% Pd and Fe-y at% Pt-(30-y) at% Pd were investigated to study their phase transformations in order to develop ductile ferromagnetic shape memory alloys appearing around room temperature. Alloys were prepared by vacuum floating induction melting, followed by hot rolling at 1000°C and homogenization at 900° C. Homogenized alloys were heat treated at 650°C for various periods of time in vacuum for atomic ordering in encapsulated quartz tubes, and quenched into iced water. It was found that in general the transformation temperatures changes with heat treatment time. In the case of Fe-23at.%Pt-2at.%Pd, Ms temperature increased and the difference between Ms and Mf increased with increasing heat treatment time, which was different from Fe3Pt where a degree of order becomes one. As heat treatment time increased, there was a tendency in that a strong first-order transformation in the disordered state was replaced by a weak first-order transformation. The Curie temperature of the alloys rose drastically with the addition of Pd, along with the transformation temperatures. Fe-23at.%Pt-2at.%Pd showed good shape memory effect after 8 hours of heat treatment at 650°C. This alloy showed much better shape recovery than any other binary Fe-Pt and Fe-Pd shape memory alloys.

In this study Cu-13.8Al alloys with 3.0% and 4.0% (wt%) of nickel were obtained by induction melting. The effect of homogenization heat treatment and hot rolling on the transformation temperatures of these alloys was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry. It was observed that the transformation temperatures increase with long homogenization times, and also by hot rolling, and this displacement is smaller for alloys with 4.0% of nickel. In both alloys in the quenched state, the reversion reaction is characterized by the appearance of multiple peaks attributed to the presence of martensites 2H and 18R. The influence of the rolling process must be associated with the loss of Ni and Al during the process.

Ti-Ni based shape memory alloys (SMAs) are of excellent shape memory effect, superelasticity and damping property. These properties of the alloys can be fully displayed only after proper heat treatment. In this paper, the research progresses of the effect of the heat treatment on the microstructure, phase composition, phase transformation behaviors and shape memory properties in Ti-Ni based SMAs are reviewed, the correlation influence mechanism is summarized, and the future research directions in this field are pointed out. It is expected to provide reference for the development of Ti-Ni based SMAs and their heat treatment technologies.

The microstructure and martensitic transformation behavior of Ni50−xTi50Lax (x = 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7) shape memory alloys were investigated experimentally. Results show that the microstructure of Ni50−xTi50Lax alloys consists of a near-equiatomic TiNi matrix, LaNi precipitates, and Ti2Ni precipitates. With increasing La content, the amounts of LaNi and Ti2Ni precipitates demonstrate an increasing tendency. The martensitic transformation start temperature increases gradually with increasing La content. The Ni content is mainly responsible for the change in martensite transformation behavior in Ni50−xTi50Lax alloys.
